Studio Tour
There is a previous post on Ty’s office, but this one examines my studio. Ok full disclosure, I like having things in boxes until I really, really need what is in the box. Also in the dome there were closets galore, and here there are only four closets!
So there I was one day just trying to get done what I wanted to get done, and Ty comes home to say there is a great shelving unit at the St. Joseph’s Flea Market next door. He saw it on the way home because they leave much of the furniture outside. The store was closed for the next two days and we just hoped it didn’t rain on it.
Tuesday morning the store opened, and we walked the sturdy, 6ft tall oak shelf half of a block to the tower. Once scrubbed down, scraped of wasp’s nests, and brought inside, Ty was all about getting me unpacked. While I put away most of our tech gear, dvds and tapes, he hefted bins full of my crafting items into one closet, and re-arranged another shelf.
He came up with some great ideas for displaying my musical instruments and moth-proof acrylic yarn. Yes, the man can cook and he’s got a mean sense of feng shui.
What’s left? Well as you can see from the picture below, I don’t have a real computer chair yet, but the bin is the perfect height, and keeps me from slouching too much. That open swift on the top of the back shelf? That was Ty’s idea.
We also have a closet full of wall hangings that need to go up, and the quilt may go on the wall too.
This morning I had to go through all of my papers trying to find one specific document. It took almost an hour to find it, so the paper organization isn’t perfect yet, but as far as yarn/fabrics/instruments/av club multimedia go, I’m pretty sure where everything is. I guess that makes it home.
Well that’s about the entire studio, except for Darth Vader wearing my derby hat.
